Metinox Overseas is a reliable producer of Aluminum Bronze Flanges in India that supplies high-quality flanges, which are designed in terms of strength, durability and corrosion resistance. Our flanges are made with excellent aluminum bronze alloys and they are employed in marine, chemical, aerospace, offshore and heavy engineering sectors where performance in harsh environments matters. We have a full line of flanges, both Weld Neck, Slip-On, Blind, Socket Weld, Lap Joint, and Threaded with pressure ratings of Class 150 up to Class 2500, made to conform to ASME B16.5 and ASME B16.47. Our aluminum bronze flanges come in standard and customized sizes and have a long service, high-mechanical strength character and ensure consistent performance in the hardening applications.
Aluminum Bronze Flanges are pipe-connecting metal elements that consist of a copper-based alloy that may include slight amounts of other elements such as iron and nickel in order to increase the strength and corrosion resistance. This is an alloy, that is resistant to seawater, chemicals, oxidation, wear, and corrosion in the atmosphere; hence, it suits very harsh industrial conditions. In high pressure and high temperature pipe joints, aluminum bronze flanges are used to offer strong, leak-free, and durable pipe joints. These flanges are commonly applied in marine applications, offshore platforms, chemical plants, power generation stations, shipbuilding, aviation, oil and gas and heavy industrial piping networks where long life and high power serviceability is of critical importance due to their high mechanical qualities, fatigue resistance, low oxidation rate and good weldability.

Aluminium Bronze is used in most industries due to its strength, resistance to corrosion and long life. It finds extensive application in the oil and gas sector concerning offshore structures and piping systems, the chemical sector concerning corrosion-resistant equipment, and the power generation sector in relation to turbines, cooling systems and condensers. The construction industry applies it to robust structural fittings, whereas the shipbuilding industry makes use of it in the marine parts that are in contact with seawater. It is also applicable in the automotive industry where it is used in hard mechanical parts, in the food industry, where the material is used in processing equipment used in the process, and in the textile industry, which requires machinery parts that are strong, wear-resistant, and reliable.
